Poor Communication Kills: Well, injures, anyway. In Book 2, while running a sled race, Aiden complains that the pressure on him is just "go, go, go!" Luis, who is waiting at the top, mistakes this for Aiden telling him to go and starts the course before it's clear, and ends up losing control of his sled in his attempt to avoid hitting anyone, crashing and breaking his wrist.

Birthday Party Goes Wrong: Book 2 Chapter 7 has this happen to Maria. First it seems like only Jordan, Emma and Luis came to the party, until the other guests belatedly show up. Her next trouble is that the restaurant doesn't have her favorite flavor of birthday cake, red velvet. That can solved in a premium scene in the same chapter.

Framing the Guilty Party: In a premium scene in Class Act Book 3, Chapter 4, Rory suggests that the group prank call Mr. Crandall telling him that Brian broke his restraining order against Lilith Vidal so that Brian and his parents will be forced to leave the party in order to sort things out. Ajay questions if it's okay to get Brian in trouble for something he didn't do, but Skye argues that he's harassed countless other girls and gotten away with it so he still deserves it. After placing the phone call, they find out that Brian actually did break his restraining order by harassing Lilith at a party.

Mega Meal Challenge: Every January 9th, the Golden Griddle has the Cedar Cove Challenge, which celebrates its anniversary with a 20-scoop sundae, and any group who finishes theirs first wins free ice cream for a year. It's considered a rite of passage for natives of Cedar Cove. Taking it on is a premium option in Book 2 Chapter 2. In Class Act, Bailey (whose parents own the restaurant) refers to it as the single worst day to be at the restaurant all year.

Frame-Up: In Book 3, a subplot centers around clearing Jordan's reputation after it's suspected that they were responsible for sabotaging Jade, Kieran or Cameron's (depending on the selected club) tryout. The only people who believe Jordan are their closest friends and Bethany. In Book 1 of Class Act, Bailey is accused of having sabotaged Jordan's theatre audition by substituting a wheeled theatre cube for one without wheels. The only people who believe them are Erin and Skye.

Sequel Escalation
 High School Story (Visual Novel) / int_391d6577
comment
Sequel Escalation: While Book 1 focuses on Jordan adapting to school, raising the School Spirit and the rivalry against Hearst, Book 2's level of drama escalated by inserting the conflict between the basketball team and the hall monitors vs. the rest of the school, shattering many of the established friendships, and the revelation that all of this is because Principal Isa is using the school's money for her embezzlement scheme. Class Act Book 1 is a fairly straightforward story revolving around the production of the school play and various personal drama. Book 2 shifts focus to the election for class president, with the resulting friction putting strain on the group's friendships and threatening to tear the group apart. Book 3 has the theatre group invited to perform at the prestigious Spotlite festival in Europe, but in addition to the competition itself, the group has to deal with their sponsors, Skye's parents, ruining the show by forcing unhelpful changes upon it as well as trying to rescue Skye from being abused by them.

Misplaced Kindergarten Teacher: Principal Hughs is this to some degree — somewhat literally, since her previous assignment was an elementary school, so she's still adjusting her mindset to working with teenagers. Because she's genuinely kind and treats the students with respect, most of them eventually come to accept it as just one of her quirks; this is especially true if the player chooses to bring her back following Isa's departure, since the experience with Isa makes Hughs that much more appealing by comparison.

Not What It Looks Like: In Book 2 Chapter 2, Jordan hears Koh on the phone telling someone about something with 325 milligrams and thinks she's making a drug deal. It's actually the medication dosage for her grandmother who's in the hospital for a stroke.

Just Friends: Caleb not getting over Zoe immediately and friendzoning Emma. Caleb telling Emma to be simply ordinary friends is understandable because 1. He is just out of a breakup, 2. He is developing feelings for Jordan, and 3. Just because the suitor is a good person, it doesn't mean he's obligated to reciprocate her feelings. Additionally, if Jordan ends up dating Emma, Caleb will tell Jordan that he noticed Jordan's reaction to Emma asking him out, suggesting that he recognized Jordan had feelings for her and didn't want to get in the way.

Sequel Hook: Book 1 ends with Principal Hughs resigning and Vice Principal Isa taking over. Book 2 ends with the announcement that Hearst is closed and all Hearst students living west of Interstate 98 transfer. Jordan asks if they know anyone like that, and he does: Max, Kara, Zoe... and Brian. Book 3 ends with a series of texts between a future protagonist (default name of Bailey) and their friend Rory, discussing Bailey starting at Berry the following year. Class Act Book 1 ends with class president elections coming up and Skye becoming horrified upon discovering that a particular unnamed person is running. Class Act Book 2 ends with Bailey and Erin talking about prom. Mr. Olsen then reveals Berry High has been invited to perform at the Spotlite International Theatre Festival in Europe.

Cheaters Never Prosper
 High School Story (Visual Novel) / int_72d30083
comment
Cheaters Never Prosper: Jordan discovers during the football game against Hearst that Brian stole the coach's binder and memorized all the plays. By doing the right choices, Berry High can win the game despite the disadvantage. Also played straight with Zoe, who attempts to get back with Caleb right before the game (it's left ambiguous whether she sincerely wants him back or is simply trying to distract him from the game), resulting in her losing both him and Brian, who had overheard her asking Caleb to take her back. Max and Kara, in their quest to become prom king and queen, show they are not above resorting to dirty play. They try to take Jordan out of the running by starting false rumors about them and framing them for sabotaging someone else's club tryout in whatever activity the player has chosen to pursue, and when that fails, they spend prom night trying to intimidate anyone out of voting for Jordan. Whether or not Jordan wins is dependent on player choices, but Max and Kara lose regardless. During the class president election in Class Act Book 2, Lorenzo and Amber boost the former's campaign by staging a video of him rescuing a kitten and having it go viral. However, Rory or Casey (whoever the player has chosen to support) ends up winning anyway. Class Act Book 3 has the Statton kids send a horrific video to intimidate the theatre group in addition to stealing an important prop. If you make the right choices, Berry wins at Spotlite despite their meddling.

Denser and Wackier: Book 2 plays a little fast and loose with realism. Principal Isa pulls a comically exaggerated Tyrant Takes the Helm with the school, and Jordan and their friends pull much wackier shenanigans in response. Towards the end, it turns out the whole thing was a front for a complicated criminal scheme by Principal Isa, an exaggerated scenario that climaxes with Jordan chasing Isa to the parking lot and having her arrested, all of which seems much more cartoonish than the more low-key climax from Book 1. Book 3 and Class Act return to a more grounded tone in line with the first one.

When looking for Caleb, Jordan gathered Julian, Emma, Maria, Aiden and Michael. The mission team to steal Hearst's Spirit Stick consisted of Jordan, Caleb, Julian, Emma, Maria, Aiden and Michael. Starting in Book 2, Jordan's core friends consist of Emma, Michael, Maria, Caleb, Aiden, Sydney, Luis, and Myra. Class Act focuses on the theatre club, whose members include Bailey, Rory, Ajay, Skye, Erin, Danielle, Clint, and Natalie.

comment
School Clubs Are Serious Business: Maria is obsessed with the Homecoming committee doing the perfect party. In Book 2, Isa forces her to give up all her leadership positions just to break her spirit so she won't fight back against Isa. In Book 2, the main conflict revolves around Principal Isa cutting the funding for the band and the cheerleaders to give it to the basketball team, and later closes all the clubs with the exception of the basketball team and the hall monitors. In Book 3, much of the conflict centers around conflict between Berry and Hearst students in cheerleading, band, and the baseball team (whichever one the player chooses will be the primary focus), as well as (to a lesser extent) on the prom committee.

comment
Artistic License – Education: Two major extracurricular activity groups (the cheerleading squad and the band) are allowed to meet completely unsupervised. In reality, even if the group is student-led, virtually any public school would require a staff member to be present at on-campus meetings of extracurricular groups for liability reasons. Though not entirely impossible, it would be very unusual for an underclassman (Jordan and Rory both being sophomores) to even be allowed to run for prom king or queen. In most schools, only upperclassmen are eligible for these positions, and some schools restrict it even further to only seniors.

Adults Are Useless: Most of the main conflicts are resolved by the teenagers, while the adults are either dorky (Dad), completely clueless (Principal Hughs) or don't do anything determinant. Subverted in Book 2, since one of Maria's dads is a police detective, and he and Ms. Hughs end up helping the students catch Principal Isa before she escapes. Jordan and the gang are the ones who discovered who she really was, and it was because of the hall monitors that she didn’t get away. Coach Shaw is also another exception in Book 3 Chapter 13, when she rules out bringing Brian back as pitcher after he threw a baseball at Myra.

Arc Villain: Each book has at least one. Book 1 has Brian Crandall as the closest person the book has to one, as he was the Token Evil Teammate at Berry High before his transfer to Hearst, and even after transferring, he continues to cause trouble for his former schoolmates. Book 2 has Principal Isa, who imposes a tyrannical regime at Berry High after replacing Hughs as principal, appoints her brother as the basketball coach, and diverts all funding from the band and cheerleading squad to the basketball team. It is later revealed that she has been embezzling funds from Berry High and various workplaces. Book 3 has Max Warren and Kara Sinclair, a couple of Hearst bullies competing against Jordan for the title of Prom King and Queen depending on their gender. Brian is also back, and this time he's creating trouble by continually harassing Myra. Book 1 of Class Act has Danielle, who continually causes trouble for Bailey because she sees the latter as her rival for Rory's affections. Book 2 of Class Act has Lorenzo Toro, who campaigns to have all school resources diverted to throwing parties, with his girlfriend Amber Hutchinson serving as The Man Behind the Man. Book 3 of Class Act has Rodger and Loretta Crandall (parents of Brian and Skye) who fund the theatre club's trip to the Spotlite Festival in Europe but then insist on all sorts of ridiculous changes to the show (including removing all the music despite the show being a musical) and put Skye through hell in the process.

Love Triangle: Wes, Autumn, and Julian are involved in this, to the point even Isa documented it in her files. Starts as a Type 10 when Wes and Autumn were still dating, while Julian was on the sides as the Hopeless Suitor, and by Book 2 this changes into a Type 3 after Wes and Autumn break up, and she and Julian kiss in a Spin-the-Bottle round. Book 1 of Class Act features one of these between Bailey, Rory, and Danielle which is either a Type 4 or Type 5 depending on whether the player is pursuing Rory or not. Danielle is in love with Rory, but Rory is only interested in Bailey, while Bailey may or may not be interested in Rory depending on player choices.

Demoted to Extra: All of the characters from the original trilogy have their roles reduced in Class Act. Jordan and Sydney become supporting characters, while the other characters, including all the love interests, are relegated to occasional cameos. The seniors (Julian, Wes, Autumn, etc.), who had already graduated, don't appear at all except in premium scenes. Jordan and the love interests do become more prominent in Book 3 when they all take part in the production of The Tempest but their role remains a secondary one. Danielle plays a major role in Book 1 of Class Act but has only a couple of brief appearances in Book 2, and her only appearances in Book 3 are two very quick cameos. Amber and her boyfriend Lorenzo have major roles in Books 1 and 2 of Class Act, but in Book 3, Lorenzo has only a couple of brief appearances while Amber is completely absent until prom.

In Class Act, Skye tries to run away from home when her family life blows up, but the other theatre kids find her and bring her back, reassuring her that they truly care about her no matter what her parents do. Skye decides that the theatre kids are her true family, thereafter referring to them as "the family I chose".

"Test Your Strength" Game: A premium date in Class Act Book 2 Chapter 7 has Bailey and friends go to an arcade. One of the games they play is this and no matter what Bailey imagines, they come in dead last while Skye shows she's a Pintsized Powerhouse by hitting the bell, surprising the rest of the group.

Cerebus Syndrome: While Class Act generally maintains the overall positive, idealistic tone of the original trilogy, it does contain some noticeably darker subject matter, including plots revolving around child abuse, the effects of parental divorce on children, and loved ones with cancer.

Developer's Foresight: In Book 2 when you become official with someone, if you try to make Jordan's nickname Boy Scout or Princess, the game tells you this isn't Endless Summer. Trying to name Michael Boy Scout gets this reaction. In Class Act Book 1, if you choose to play Corporation at the cast party, you get to choose the name of your company. If you choose Pixelberry, you get an achievement called "Nice Name", with the caption "I see what you did there."

comment
Prom Is for Straight Kids: Averted for Homecoming. If Female!Jordan takes Emma or Maria, or Male!Jordan goes with Caleb, Michael, or Aiden, people even comment how cute they look together. Jordan also has an option to convince Mia to ask Sydney to dance at homecoming, and Mia will ask Sydney to prom regardless. None of this is treated as anything but completely normal. Tucker and Kieran going to prom together is treated in a similarly nonchalant fashion. Also averted in Class Act if Female!Bailey goes with Skye or Female!Rory, or if Male!Bailey goes with Ajay or Male!Rory. Skye can also attend prom with Lilith if Bailey is not dating her.

 High School Story (Visual Novel) / int_e462893a
comment
Artistic License – Sports: If Jordan joins the baseball team in Book 3, a major plot thread revolves around the team having tryouts for cleanup hitter, which isn't an accurate depiction of how baseball teams are assembled. Teams have tryouts to determine roster spots and fielding positions, but positions in the batting order are determined by the manager, coach, or captain based on players' individual skill sets. (Although this could theoretically be something that this specific coach put into place despite it being non-standard.) The fact that the baseball team has only two pitchers - one starter and one reliever - is also problematic. High school teams typically play around three games a week, sometimes more if weather forces games to be rescheduled, and there are mandatory pitch count limits that determine how long an individual pitcher can go. Most high school teams carry at least three starting pitchers along with multiple relievers, and smaller programs will often have a few position players who can pitch if needed. The football game in Class Act seems to get the positions confused, as it has Casey, a defensive player, on the field at the same time as Caleb, who is a wide receiver, an offensive position. If Jordan joins the cheerleading squad, there are several instances where a round-off is placed in routines as though it was a variation on a cartwheel. In reality, a round-off is a transitional or preparatory element, not a skill that's performed for its own sake. And you certainly wouldn't do two in a row, the way Emma does in her Book 3 promposal if Jordan is dating her — for one thing, just the mechanics of that would likely be more trouble than it's worth.

Second Year Protagonist: Jordan transfers to Berry High as a sophomore. This distances them in age from the original app's main cast, who are mostly seniors, while ensuring they are not entirely new to the high school experience. The spinoff, Class Act, takes place in the following year, so Jordan is distant in age from Bailey, the new (freshman) main character, but still not ready to graduate.

High-School Dance
 High School Story (Visual Novel) / int_f0fc8518
comment
High-School Dance: The main event of Book 1 is Homecoming party. The right choices throughout the game allow Jordan to win Homecoming King/Queen with Julian or Mia winning the other spot depending on your gender. If Jordan doesn't make the right choices to win, then Julian or Mia gets it instead. Book 2 doesn't have an official school dance (the winter formal gets cancelled thanks to Isa), but Payton throws a party which serves the same purpose. There's no king or queen, but Payton does name a guest of honor (it will be Jordan if school spirit is high enough; otherwise it will be Michael and Maria). In Book 3, Jordan competes for Prom King/Queen against Kara and Max. Jordan will win if the player makes enough correct choices throughout the game, with Tucker or Bethany winning the opposite spot. If Jordan doesn't score high enough to win, then it will be Tucker and Bethany getting the crowns. Kara and Max lose no matter what the player does. Homecoming occurs again in Class Act Book 1, only this time it takes place in the middle of the book and isn't the overall focus of the story. Jordan is named Homecoming King/Queen regardless of player choices (it isn't revealed who the other winner is). Book 3 Chapters 15 and 16 of Class Act take place at prom. Rory is Prom King or Queen depending on their gender; the other winner is either Maria or Lorenzo.

School Club Stories: In Book 1, Jordan (along with Emma) is given the option to join either the football team, the cheerleading squad, or the band, and Book 1 will showcase the most of the chosen club, while the others are shown briefly. The only obligatory club is the Homecoming committee. In Book 2, Jordan can choose between the basketball team, concert band, or the cheerleaders. Also, Maria and Michael form the news broadcast until Isa forces Maria out. Later, Isa creates the hall monitors to take charge of the school security. In Book 3, Hearst students temporarily transferring to Berry High join the baseball team, cheerleading squad, or band, and some of them are accusing the leaders of the respective clubs of favoritism.
